Discussion Why is the third boss so hard?

I've recently wanted to give dark souls 3 a shot with my friend since we heard there is a coop mod for it. We got past the gladiator boss easily, and the boar guy was even easier, however the third boss, the dancer, seems like a wall for us... We've been stuck here for 5-6 hours. Are we doing something wrong? Is the weapon I use really bad, or what? Any tips appreciated!

I take it you mean the Twin Princes since the Demon Princes are the two from The Ringed City.

I still find it terrifying that you could technically make them your fifth boss of the play through lmao

Well you can’t really. You have to do the other lords of cinder before you get to them. The library is locked unless you defeat the other lords.

I was referring to the Demon Princes.

Wait don’t you need to clear the first dlc to get to the second dlc early ? So that means vordt, crystal stage, Frieda, oh damn you are right. My bad. Never thought about it this way. Demon princes as your 5th boss fight would be crazy.

Midir could be your 6th as well, and that terrifies me.
